#Electric autohelm 2000 motor generator#

Electric motors are found in industrial fans, blowers and pumps, machine tools, household appliances, power tools and disk drives. The largest electric motors are used for ship propulsion, pipeline compression and pumped-storage applications with ratings reaching 100 megawatts.

General-purpose motors with standard dimensions and characteristics provide convenient mechanical power for industrial use. In addition to AC versus DC types, motors may be brushed or brushless, may be of various phase (see single-phase, two-phase, or three-phase), and may be either air-cooled or liquid-cooled.

An electric generator is mechanically identical to an electric motor, but operates with a reversed flow of power, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.Д®lectric motors may be classified by considerations such as power source type, internal construction, application and type of motion output. Electric motors can be powered by direct current (DC) sources, such as from batteries, or rectifiers, or by alternating current (AC) sources, such as a power grid, inverters or electrical generators. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft.
